Hopes to Add High-Tech Partner to Force, "COPLINK
is part of a new science of data-mining algorithms that
allows a computer to make high-speed connections that would
take a human weeks. More than 100 agencies nationwide use
COPLINK. The latest to sign up is the San Diego Police Department,
joining Boston, Minneapolis, Phoenix, all the police agencies
in Alaska, and the first agency, the Tucson Police Department...
The systems, [LAPD Assistant Chief] Gascon said, provide
a kind of instant institutional memory, like a veteran detective
who never forgets. Gascon said high-tech law enforcement
tools such as COPLINK are the wave of the future...COPLINK
was born in a university lecture room, the fortuitous result
of a police office who went back to college..."

"A year ago, no one would have
thought of information sciences as posing a supercomputer
problem, and here it is, overnight, blossoming into one of
the largest users of supercomputer time at NCSA. And, since
the results of the computation will be useful to many of the
faculty and students accessing the Illinois Digital Library
testbed, the results of this work have wider applicability
than any previous supercomputing application."
